WEDDINGS
LET THE WEDDING BELLS COMMENCE!
Congratulations on your engagement and upcoming wedding celebrations!
Whether big or small, you'll be sure to find a delicious buttercream creation with Wisteria Lane Baking Co. that'll make a picture perfect centre piece on your special day.
So, here's how to get the planning process started towards booking your wedding cake...
STEP ONE
INITIAL ENQUIRY
First thing's first, availability!
You can check availability for your wedding date and location by completing the contact form linked below.
This will provide me with all the important details of your wedding, along with some insight of your vision for the day, so I can put together a design idea and price quote for you.
STEP TWO
DESIGN CONCEPT
Your initial enquiry will be replied to within 48 hours, detailing availability for your wedding date, along with a design concept through use of picture references and an initial price guide, based on your number of servings required and wedding cake concept.
At this stage we will exchange emails with supported imagery to ensure all details are captured in bringing your vision to life.
STEP Three
CONFIRMATION
Once you're happy with your cake size and design as discussed, an invoice link will be created and all details of the booking will be enclosed - including delivery location/times, set up display, cake sizing and servings suggestions, design references and allergen information.
Thereafter, a non-refundable deposit of £100 can be paid in order to secure the date and booking in the diary.
STEP FOUR
THE LEAD UP & WEDDING DAY
Leading up to your big day you will be contacted again, just to confirm all is well and there have been no changes to the required design, size or sponge flavours.
Here the remaining balance will be requested, if not already paid, up to 3 weeks prior to your wedding date.
On the day, your cake will be delivered and set up as requested and the venue will be provided with a clear list of allergens by flavour, cake cutting guide and contact details.
CAKE SIZE AND CUTTING GUIDES
All our tiered cakes come in a variety of sizes to best serve your number of guests.
Serving suggestions are based on cake slices approx. 1" in width and 4" in depth and all pricing guides noted below are based on tall, 4 layer sponge cakes
(although shorter cakes are of course available).
We suggest checking you are happy with these measurements before placing your order or choosing a cake the next size up for a more generous serving slice.
SPONGE FLAVOURS & FILLINGS
With 7 sponge flavours and a selection of fillings to choose from, you'll have plenty of choice when it comes to impressing your guests once the cake is cut!
You can order a cake selection box from the link below, which contains x10 cake flavour combinations and x2 sugar cookie favours - the perfect addition to your table décor, by use of name place settings, whilst also doubling up as a sweet treat for your guests to take home and remember the day by!
WEDDING COOKIE FAVOURS & NAME PLACE SETTING!
Elevate your table décor with a cookie favour - customised to match your wedding stationary down to the font, fondant colour and ribbon!
Or replace those handwritten name place cards with personalised name place cookie favours - combining seating plan & wedding favours into one!
Pricing starts from £2.00 - enquire via the contact form in "Step One" above.
DELIVERY, SET UP & STARTING PRICES
Although all of our cakes are available for collection, local delivery and set up is available for tiered cakes - within 45 minutes drive of Ware, Hertfordshire.
*This rule is in place, to ensure your cakes arrive at your destination safely and still structurally sound, after being in transit during what could be warm weather. The longer your cake is unrefrigerated, the softer the buttercream becomes, and this can impact the appearance and structure of the cake.*
Pricing for delivery Hertfordshire/Bedfordshire/Essex local starts from £25 and total charge is calculated by distance, time, petrol, any congestion or parking changes as well as the bakers hourly rate.
Average pricing of £3.00 per serving applies to basic buttercream cake creations, however additional decorations such as intricate piping, rice paper sails, fresh florals and gold leaf will be at additional cost.
Pricing does not include delivery and set up to your venue, where applicable.
If you would like the appearance of a large two or three tiered cake but do not require lots of servings for your party size, our tiered cakes can be made using "dummy/false" tiers and a simple sheet cake can be provided for serving.
